About This Quote

There are many good reasons why people should be lonely. For example, they have no friends or family because they are ostracized by society. They have no place to fit in because they come from a different cultural group. They have no one to love them because they have bad habits or are ugly or are poor.

They are sad because they are unhappy with their life, their job, their home, their marriage, etc. And finally, there's the fact that they are alone because they are not married or dating anyone.
